The isotropy, which is typical for a 4A2 ground state of a 3d3 ion in an octahedral crystal field, and the g value of 1.9795 verify that Cr is observed in its charged donor state Cr3+. The observation of a broad photoluminescence band with a maximum at 900 nm, which can be attributed to an internal Cr3+ transition, supports the identification of the impurity as Cr3+.enchromiumcrystal field interactionsg-factorhyperfine structureparamagnetic resonancephosphorsphotoluminescencepowdersstrontium compoundselectron paramagnetic resonanceisotropic featureshyperfine structurespowder phosphorsnatural cr isotopesisolated cr impurity4a2 ground stateoctahedral crystal fieldg valuecharged donor stateinternal cr3+ transition621journal article
